To the editor:Every day we get more families in need of help. Will you and your organization hold a Christmas collection?

The Leavenworth Assistance Center is in great need of the following: Boys underwear size 2T, 3T, 4-6-8-10-12-14 and 16; girls underwear size 4T and 16 only; socks – toddlers for girls and boys 6-12 months, 12-18 months, 18-24 months and 24-36 months and S/M or L socks for girls and boys. Please do not gift-wrap articles. Cash, gift cards from Walmart, Kmart, Aldi's, Price Chopper, Dillons, Country Mart, and other donations gladly accepted. These will go to the needy children and families in Leavenworth County.

We are encouraging organizations to hold this drive between Nov. 23 and Dec. 6. The Center needs the items early so we can arrange to distribute them. The goal is to give each child what they need. Drop off at the Assistance Center, or make arrangements for items to be picked up by calling 682-7873. Thank you.
